Some others come to mind...

1. update source address issues
2. next hop self (with and without using the "next-hop-self" argument of the neighbor address)
3. ebgp-multihop when don't expect it - like when using tricky routing features that cause ebgp-multihop to be required to make the peer come up.
4. Route-reflector issues effecting next hop - cluster id, cluster list

Can you post the questions if any you have seen which caused your doubts?

The trickiest thing I faced in my studies was having to use ebgp-multihop with issues where I had "ip unnumbered" and similar features configured.

 GS,

While going through INE`s expanded blueprint, I found this topic under the
BGP`s section.

(2) Next Hop Issues

What kind of issues can I expect with next hop besides the problem on BGP
not installing a prefix on its network table
when it doesnt know how to reach the next hop via IGP? Any other thoughts on
this matter? I could not clearly get
to the point that the blueprint is asking on this item.
